Petty Officer Tina Casanova, herself a victim of sexual abuse and harassment, will run from Ft. Sam Houston to Austin to encourage change in military culture.
From the case of Vanessa Guillen which sparked nationwide outrage to the unusually high number of soldiers gone missing or found dead on post and in the surrounding area, a very loud alarm has been ringing at Fort Hood for the last few years and after much public outcry, change is coming to the base.
Officials announced Tuesday that a memorial gate will be constructed in honor of Vanessa Guillen, the murdered soldier whose death sparked major changes.
